Decent Motherboard
I had this motherboard since the middle of August 2023, I've experienced no issues setting it up with the i9-13900K I bought with it. The fact it was able to perform small duty tasks without a GPU to enhance the visuals speaks volumes.

Great board, read if Windows 11 Internet Issue
Fantastic board, and easy BIOS interface. If you are installing Windows 11 Home edition, you will likely not have LAN or WiFi drivers available to connect online. There is a screen in the install process that requires internet. Google how to install Windows 11 without internet and you should find that Shift+F10 opens the cmd prompt, and typing OOBE/BYPASSNRO into the prompt and hitting enter will restart the computer and give you the option to select "I don't have internet". Don't let this put you off, a lot of new boards have this hiccup, and it is mostly a Windows 11 Home oversight (Pro users get the option to say "I don't have internet" without the workaround for some reason). The actual board is fantastic, although I will say that the dragon logo is absolutely childish IMO. I immediately turned the RGB off on the dragon logo and now it blends in and allows the rest of the board to shine!
